Multicomponent transforms for motion JPEG 2000 applications

Motion JPEG 2000 (M-JPEG 2000) has been developed as a new video standard exploiting the still image codec JPEG 2000. The main benefits of this standard, as high scalability and quick random access to the frames, are paid in terms of compression efficiency. In order to fix this drawback while maintaining all previously mentioned features, we propose a novel technique to exploit the multicomponents transform feature of JPEG 2000 part-2; this is achieved taking advantage of the temporal correlation, while maintaining a relatively low complexity in comparison with motion compensation based video codecs.
